Recipe Keys

Very Low Carb (VLC): Great little low carb treat to carry in a snack bag. No need for a cracker to spread it on!

Family-Friendly (FF): To start these out very kid-friendly, you might want to keep the “unfamiliar” tastes to a minimum—use oats only at first then expand by reducing the oats and adding in other protein-rich ingredients.

Store-Bought-Stella (SBS): Simple, no fuss, no bake recipe! These can be chilling within fifteen minutes of starting!

Homemade Hannah (HH): These can be as homemade as you want them to be!

Freezer Cooking (FC): I have never frozen these, but I do freeze Buckeyes and Buckeye bars, so I think they would freeze well.

Trim Healthy Mama-Friendly (THM) (www.trimhealthymama.com):: To stay in S territory, you might have to reduce the oats and use more non-carb/low carb ingredients like coconut, flax, crushed nuts and seeds, etc. You could make these an E pretty easily by making peanut butter out of peanut flour and adding in low fat mix ins (oats, lavash “graham cracker crumbs,” etc.). You could possibly even get these down to a FP with a little tweaking and imagination!

Sugar Free (SF): Yes. Again, if you use super loose peanut butter, might have to add more dry ingredients in order to make the mixture shape-able.
